And now you're doing the same exact thing they are - boasting about how you're superior to everyone else.
Is it possible for us to have discussions without these signaling-laden put downs? Just say what you want to say and try to refrain from putting everyone else down.
- themartorana 11y agoIt's not always possible to make a point without the suggestion or implication that the alternative to the point is a lesser choice. So why beat about the bush - if you mean to say that there are angles to a thing that are inferior, just say it. Not everything can be so inclusive. For instance, I think anyone that believes the pyramids were built to store grain is inferior to scientists that can tell me why they were actually built. So be it said.
- thedayturns 11y agoIt's absolutely possible. Compare OP with OP with the first sentence elided. Just as much insight with 100% less superiority.
